Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread -

Re: Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread

I still love my medi Batman - it has a lot of mods (face and eye repaint, wool stuffed in neck, head slightly widened, belt replaced with HT version, cape replaced with custom version). But the end result is pretty epic and compares quite well with the DX. The head sculpt has a lovely roundness to it which is quite accurate and missing from the DX.

nope, imo the suit seems more durable than the dx... but then again i hardly pose any of my figures in any extreme poses.

yup i agree, the suit on medicom looks more lasting than the DX.. hope it can withstand the test of time.

I love mine too, but he has decided he doesn't want to stand up on his own anymore. Anyone else had problems with the ankles?

Have to say....that head looks better than the DX right there. Never thought i would say that.

The Medi head does in fact look better than the DX in certain angles for sure.

Re: Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread

The suit is more accurate too, the real costume wasn't made of rubber.

I might have to buy another one of these so I can attempt the awesome mods that the other guys here have done.

Especially now that it seem getting a DCD DX is going to be impossible *sigh*

Re: Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread

Why's that?

Because everywhere I've tried is sold out and getting no re-stock, and I don't want the leaky version, it would drive me crazy.

Unless you know of somewhere..?

Ebay is your friend

So are brick and mortar comic shops, I've seen a few places with him in stock the last week. About a $40 markup on it, but still, in stock.

Sanzo, the Medicom "Dark Knight"-branded OS Batman is a great-looking figure, very different from the one they released for "Batman Begins". The head sculpt and paint are first rate, and the suit is made from a durable, non-tacky material.

The only real drawback: He is too small to stand up next to the HT Dark Knight figures. I found a "workaround" for this problem, though: Put him on a T-700 stand and wrap his cape around his ankles.

This is my first time posting pics, and I don't have Photoshop installed on this computer, so please don't judge these pics too harshly....

Wow thanks Eddy, I checked there a few days ago and nothing. I planned to order from there first off but decided to order from Forbidden Planet instead, and then they only got 10 in stock.

Thanks buddy

Re: Medicom Dark Knight Batman - Photo Thread

thanks for the pic plutonic, how is the aticulations on the fig? your pic show clearing the shorter neck and the more expression face of the batman begins, makes me wants it even more now

Will these work for modding the chest decals?
https://www.hlj.com/product/HSGTF9
they have free shipping which is pretty good cause the other decals that were used were like $40 through eBay

Looks stunning, Thrust! lforigno's capes really transforms the figure(s). It gives that premium look.



Thats the same paint I have used. https://tinyurl.com/ylqmose

Then to tone down the bronze sparkles and add that subtle matte metal realistic shine. The light sand part. https://tinyurl.com/yf452jq

I can't find the exact carbon fiber/kevlar decals on eBay. https://tinyurl.com/yg4xx2h
The set I used was the same make there, BBR but it was code DEC 26.

The soot part was used to tone down the bright grey and shine on the kevlar while keeping the detail. https://tinyurl.com/ylj5gse

Microsol was used to soften the decals around all the curved areas for a painted on factory finish. https://tinyurl.com/yj96fe8
